Soft drinks stain removal

You love that soda pop fizz, but not when a can explodes over your clothes. Fizzle out those stains and enjoy your drink without worrying about how to get rid of soft drink stains with these helpful tips from Tide.

On-the-Go Tip:

Wet a cloth with cold water and blot the stain or run cold water through the back of the stain. If available, use Tide to Go Instant Stain Remover.
  1. Remove the excess residue from the stain.
  2. Press the tip of the Tide to Go Instant Stain Remover onto the stain several times to release some of the stain remover solution.
  3. Rub the tip gently across the stain to remove it. If necessary, add more liquid and continue to rub gently.
  4. Important: If the treated area is exposed to direct sunlight, then wipe with a damp cloth or a napkin to remove excess solution.
    • Remove Excess:

      Blot excess and run cold water over the stain immediately.
    Remove excess before rinsing under running water
    • Pre-treat:

      Pour Tide Ultra Stain Release Liquid directly onto the soft drink stain and rub gently. Let it stand for 5 minutes.

    • Dose:

      Use the cap to ensure you use the right amount of detergent, and pour it into the detergent dispenser if you have an HE machine, or directly into the drum before loading the clothes if you have a non-HE machine.
    Dose the right amount of detergent
    • Load:

      Without rinsing off the detergent, place the garment into the washer with other items. Leaving the detergent on the stain will give your wash that extra boost of cleaning power.
    Load the garment into the washer
    • Wash:

      Wash on the usual cycle, on warm. Always check the instructions on the garment’s care label.

    • Unload:

      When the cycle is complete, unload the garments immediately.

If the stain persists after washing, repeat the previous steps before tossing in the dryer, as drying will set the stain.

Effective Stain Removal for a Variety of Stains

Liquids have the annoying habit of dripping everywhere, and the next thing you know, you've just spilled your glass of soda down your shirt. Luckily, Tide has you covered when it comes to stain removal, from soft drink stains to more specific liquids, like sports drinks and fruit juices. 

Tide can help you with the cleaning by managing tough stain removal and making your whites whiter.
